Discover the joy of crocheting granny squares in this two-part class designed for beginners and crafty enthusiasts alike!
Class 1: Getting Started with Granny Squares
In the first session, you’ll learn the essential crochet stitches and techniques to create your very own granny squares. Step by step, we’ll guide you through starting squares, changing colors, and keeping your stitches neat and even. By the end of the class, you’ll have a solid foundation and a few finished squares ready to build on.
Class 2: Combining Squares into Finished Projects
One week later, return for the second session where the fun continues! You’ll learn how to join your granny squares and transform them into a product of your choice—whether it’s a cozy blanket, a stylish bag, or a unique accessory. We’ll also cover tips for finishing edges and adding creative touches to make your project truly yours.
